Inspired by Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, this vivid collection touches on relevant details from the artist’s colorful life using poetry as its medium. Named after Kahlo’s works, the poems examine a range of topics, including Kahlo’s childhood polio, near-fatal bus accident, tempestuous marriage to muralist Diego Rivera, love affairs, miscarriages, and adventures in Mexico City, New York City, and Paris. Transformative and cathartic, this remarkable compilation mirrors Kahlo’s own intense involvement with her paintings and celebrates her accomplishments.
